    To mark the special occasion of the First Anniversary of my First Post on the LBSC, I shall repost the Genesis of my time on this board…

    Spam

    I’m a reasonable guy. No, really, I am. But there’s something I don’t get. Since the beginning of April, via the wonders of spam, I have been offered:
    - 3312 hours free online with AOL
    - 45 dates with singles in my area
    - 2250 business cards saving me £675
    - Almost 5ft of penis extensions
    - A 17inch increase in penis girth
    - 16 sets of Iraq’s Most Wanted playing cards
    - 23 bj’s
    - 62 refinance mortgages
    - 64 free mobile phones

    Can someone explain the concept to me using small words and visual aids?

    So what’s changed since this time last year?

    • I get a lot more spam, though not so many Penis Extensions any more.
    • I have a nephew
    • I have five more A-Levels
    • I have seven months of medical training
    • I’m a little less reasonable, and a little more eccentric
    • I now have one of the mobile phone contracts whose adverts used to annoy me
    • I’m a year older
    • My email address has changed
    • I have much larger debts
    • I no longer work at Homebase
    • I still post on here
    • I’ve developed an un(?)healthy liking for Apple Juice
    • I spend most of my time in a completely different part of the country
    • For the most part, I have completely different friends
    • I tend to get headaches more frequently
    • I shower, rather than bath, more often
    • I still eat Honey Loops for breakfast
    • I now drink from plastic cups and eat off paper plates
    • I get out more

    So there you go.

    Just in case you’re worried, this post isn’t coming to you live, it was pre-recorded last week. I don’t usually pre-record my posts, but I wanted this one to be just right.
